Does anybody know a similar Adobe Illustrator forum for me?


Try Inkscape, this from their website.

No man, I wasn't joking with you.

You asked "does anybody know a similar Adobe Illustrator forum"
I read your message to quickly and thought you were asking for a "program" similar to Adobe Illustrator.

My mistake man.
Sorry man.

Hah ok man no problem though!

But i've found a site and i tried AI already but what is a huge DISADVANTAGE is that you don't have that much shapes and brushes as in PS.. you have to make most things by yourself????:s

Btw:i don't know what the problem is but almost every time i opened AI it crashed after i think 20minutes????

That happened never with PS!

AI is worth keeping in you computer. It handles vector images very well. Around here, it's the norm to do things in PS and Corel and export them to AI for FA work.

What????Is it possible to import something from PS to AI and vice verca????
 
Did you overlook the EXPORT>PATHS TO ILLUSTRATOR function? The file exported/saved is an AI file. Of course you can't open a psd layer file in AI (unless the newer versions can. I have an old version) Yes you can open AI files in PS.

Something has to be wrong with your AI. Try re-install?

I don't know what the problem is but i can work MAXIMUM 30minutes on it then it crashes.. :s:s:s
 
That is strange.... never happened to me and I sometimes work for hours on Illustrator. If anything crashed, it's me from exhaustion.

Have no answer for your prob, bro. Unless you check with the Illustrator forums or adobe itself.

But iDad may have a point.... there could be something conflicting with AI..... a fonts apps or another apps, a shared file you may have deleted when you uninstalled a program application...... try remember and take notice of what you did when it crashed....
 
Hold on... there was one time a few years back... I remember PS or Corel crashing after working with it for some time. The final crash spelled the end of my hard drive. At that time, I had one drive partitioned into 2 for OS and files.
